| | My Younger Brother Died On 10/24/08 | | | Sunday, November 2, 2008 (8:54 PM)
(I'm feeling melancholy) | | This is for all who knew my brother Ralph, aka:Twobit4625.
On October 24th 2008, my family lost it's youngest brother. Ralph Anthony Muller died from the complications of having a blood clot travel to his brain. Paremedics tried valiantly to save him, but he had been too long without oxygen. The doctors kept his body alive on machinery until the 27th, doing CAT Scans and stuff to make sure, but the part of Ralph that we all loved & cherished so well, did indeed die... on Oct 24, 2008... ...It was his 45th birthday.
BEST MEMORIES OF RALPH
I last talked to Ralph on September 29th I think. We were co-miserating about how the years start passing so fast once you get older. We also hashed over many of our greatest memories like sneaking off together to go to the Desoto Dragstrip and Speedway together.
We also talked about a few of our many "all-nighter" fishing trips that turned into "weekenders" because the fishing was so good. We found all kinds of ways to get into the unfished hidey-holes, and we caught some HUGE Bass (Myakka River) and Monster Redfish (Phillippe Creek). We must have talked for an hour about the GIANT 50 inch Snook he caught and the "tiny" 42 inch one I got on the same night, at the Humpback Bridge off of Siesta Rd, in Sarasota.
Then of course, there were many great memories of various concerts in St Pete, Lakeland, + Tampa, not to mention the "Friday-night boredom" road trips, to Daytona, Cocoa Beach, and Cape Canaveral. It was a great conversation, and we both were smiling when we hung up the phones. Neither of us realized at the time, that we'd never speak to each other again. I'm SURE glad that I told him how much it meant to me that he was my brother, and how much I loved him.
Well folks, knowing that Ralph was a Christian, I guess that he got the greatest birthday present since his birth. For his 45th birthday, my dear brother went to Heaven. He will be SORELY missed by those he left here on Earth.

| | About ME... | | | Wednesday, April 2, 2008 (9:21 PM)
(I'm feeling optimistic) | | | Welcome to my channel!!!
I'm only on here a few times a week. IF you need to contact me sooner, I DO have a yahoo email. I use the name twobelybuttnz on that account. PLEASE do not spam me. I am very quick to report spam to yahoo's list of addresses, but still HATE having to do that. Anymore, I find that I must report several senders a day as spammers.
If you treat me well, I'll ALWAYS return the treatment to you. I'm a Scorpio, and have most of the positive Scorpio traits. That being said, I do also have a few of the nastiest Scorpio traits as well, but I reserve that negativity for those who have earned it. Let's be sure that you are not one of them. OK???
MY friends list is a special place. If your channel is just a blank page... No pix, no bio, no blog, no videos, etc, then don't even bother asking to be a friend until you take the time to put some of YOU up on your channel. If you are on my friends list, that means that I can see why we might get along or hit it off. It takes more than just asking for someone to be added to my list.
My dad used to say that if you count your friends and get past 2 fingers, you MAY be counting the wrong people. If you get past 5 fingers you're DEFINITELY counting the wrong people. My dad died in 1982, but he gets smarter every day in my opinion. LOL!!!
If I've agreed to your friends request, that means that I can see that we should get along well, and possibly even help each other out in some way or another someday. As I raise up my cup of diet Sams Club cola I am saying: Here's to our becoming all that friends can be for each other!!!
I'm going to "blow my own horn" here a little bit...
I am a fairly intelligent person. I tested in the top 12% of America on my college IQ tests. I hold an A.A. degree in Secondary School Education with a heavy concentration of Psychology credits. I am a member of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society.
I have always been a fast study. I learn and retain things extremely well. Thanks to that trait, I've been certified in all phases of Photography including darkroom and photo-journalism. The same is true of all facets of the following trades, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, roofing, tile-setting, landscaping, pipefitting, welding, trucking, metal fabrication, automotive, marine, and deisel repair, as well as paint, autobody, and fiberglass work. I'm also certified in welding, brazing, burning, and iron-working. I am also able to admit that there are some people who know more about any of these areas than I do, and consequently, I will ALWAYS listen to others opinions to ensure that I do the best possible quality of work. I spent 7 years on the road as a traveling craftsman, making money by selling my various creations at arts & carfts shows. My mother insisted on all of her 7 kids learning how to use her antique Singer sewing machine, and thanks to that I have also done a fair amount of upholstery work and clothing repair.
I enjoy helping others, and even though I'm now 90% disabled, I do enjoy using what I've learned to help others fix their own problems. IF I don't know something, I'll sure enough tell you so, and then help you find the answer you need... IF my back, knees, and hips can tolerate sitting for the time it takes to do so.
Best wishes to all,
Hank
